Mobile Daily Devotional with Pst. Oluboye Emmanuel Week 41, Day 2:Monday, 9th October, 2023.TOPIC: GOD HONOUR SACRIFICE: Pest to Sacrifice – Wrong Proceeds. (9)

“3. And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.

5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.”

Beloved, I want to believe we are all hearing from God what a Sacrifice should be and how it should be offered. Today’s lesson is about the sacrifice of Cain. Every Sacrifice differs, you don’t compare yours with someone else’s sacrifice. What God requested of you is not what He requested from me. That your sacrifice isn’t pleasing to God is your fault not someone’s else fault. Many offerings, tithes, gifts, e.t.c are rejected by God because of how it’s been offered or where it came from.

Why was Cain sacrifice rejected? The scripture said, “3. And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the “Fruit Of The Ground An Offering Unto The LORD.” Genesis 4:3.

Back to Genesis 3:17  

“17. And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: Cursed Is The Ground For Thy Sake; In Sorrow Shalt Thou Eat Of It All The Days Of Thy Life;”

The Lord cursed the ground on behalf of Adam while Cain still went ahead to offer sacrifice from same ground to the Lord. Yes, it was his hand work but not fitting for God as a sacrifice. What are you offering to God as Sacrifice? From where do you get that proceeds? Is God pleased with where your offering is coming from? Watch out on what you call sacrifice before offering it to God. Wrong proceed is a pest to ones Sacrifice, be warn.

Good Day and God bless you.

Happy Birthday to all celebrants and Happy Wedding Anniversary to those celebrating today.
